6 reasons companies choose Greenly over Traace by Tennaxia
A Product-first Platform, not a Service Engagement
Carbon accuracy shouldn't depend on the number of consulting days you buy. Greenly is delivered as pure SaaS-pricing model: the platform automates data collection, classification and reconciliation so your teams own the process in-house. You invest in software that compounds in value, not in recurring services to keep the tool running.
The Most Advanced Climate AI
EcoPilot automates the ingestion, classification and reconciliation of emissions data across 300,000+ activity-based factors. The result is less manual entry, fewer errors, and teams that spend their time on decisions rather than on consolidation. Where service-led models rely on billed hours to process data, Greenly handles 90% of it natively in the platform.
Transatlantic Coverage: Europe & North America
Greenly is built for organisations operating on both sides of the Atlantic. On the European side: native CSRD, green taxonomy, CBAM. On the US side: SEC Climate Disclosure, SB 253/261, TCFD. Hundreds of North American companies already run multi-jurisdiction footprints on Greenly, coverage that a France-focused platform is not designed to deliver.
The most complete emission-factor database
Scope 3 is often more than 70% of a company's footprint. Calculating it with generic factors means accepting an error margin that won't survive an audit. Greenly draws on 300,000+ activity-based factors, 10,000+ product LCAs and 25,000+ supplier-specific emission factors across Europe and the United States, so you can quantify, compare and engage suppliers on solid data rather than estimates.
Native, Automated Product LCA
Greenly includes a built-in LCA module that measures product impact down to materials and components, with 90% of the process automated. Regulatory compliance reports like ISO 14040/44, ISO 14067, EPD, FDES, PEP, Digital Product Passport (DPP) are generated directly from the platform. This product-level granularity is what eco-design and emerging product regulations require.
One All-in-one Carbon Management Suite
Carbon accounting, product LCA, CSRD/VSME/IFRS reporting and supplier engagement are all connected inside Greenly: no double entry, no manual reconciliation between tools. With 3,500 customers representing 250 MtCO2e under management, the platform creates a real Scope 3 network effect: many of your suppliers are likely already on Greenly, so you can collect primary data directly.

Avantages &
Inconvénients
D'après les avis des utilisateurs sur G2.
- Platform vs. service model: Greenly is delivered as pure SaaS with 90% of data processing automated in-platform. Traace by Tennaxia pairs software with a services layer, so part of the value is delivered through engagements rather than the product itself.
- Product LCA & compliance: Greenly embeds native, automated LCA with one-click regulatory reports (ISO 14040/44, ISO 14067, EPD, FDES, PEP, DPP). Traace by Tennaxia centres on corporate carbon and decarbonization trajectory, with product-level LCA less developed.
- International & regulatory coverage: Greenly is built for multi-jurisdiction reporting across Europe and North America (CSRD, CBAM, SB 253/261, TCFD). Traace by Tennaxia is primarily designed for the French market.
- Scale & network effect: With 3,500+ customers across 29 countries (200+ in the US), Greenly enables instant Scope 3 data collection from suppliers already on the platform, a network a France-focused player does not replicate.

The main differences come from the delivery model and the breadth of the platform. Greenly is pure SaaS, with 90% of data processing automated in the product. Traace / Tenaxia combines software with a services layer, where part of the work is delivered through consulting engagements that add to the licence cost and increase time-to-value. Greenly also covers a wider scope (carbon accounting, product LCA, CSRD reporting and supplier engagement) across Europe and North America, where Traace by Tennaxia is primarily built for the French market.
Greenly starts at €15,000 with no implementation fees and expert support included from entry level. Traace / Tenaxia typically layers project and services fees on top of the platform licence, so the total cost of ownership depends on the size of the engagement. With Greenly, the value sits in the software itself rather than in recurring services.
Yes, and it's a structural difference. Greenly includes a native LCA module covering end-to-end product carbon footprints, with 90% of the process automated. Compliance reports are generated directly from the platform: ISO 14040/44, ISO 14067, EPD, FDES, PEP and Digital Product Passport (DPP). Traace by Tennaxiafocuses on corporate carbon and decarbonization trajectory, with product-level LCA less central to its offering.
Greenly is built for organisations operating on both sides of the Atlantic. On the European side: native CSRD, green taxonomy, CBAM. On the US side: SEC Climate Disclosure, SB 253/261, TCFD. Hundreds of North American companies already run multi-jurisdiction footprints on Greenly, coverage that a France-focused platform is not designed to deliver. Traace by Tennaxia is primarily designed for the French market, with lighter coverage of US and cross-border requirements.
Yes. Greenly goes beyond measurement with a full SBTi planning module, a library of 200+ pre-quantified reduction actions by sector, and a real-time emissions-trajectory simulator. Each action carries an integrated financial analysis (CapEx / OpEx) so you can arbitrate between short-term reductions and structural investments, and custom actions let you adapt the plan to your context.
